Flowchart describing each of the 3 main analytical pathways used to explore the genetic architecture of smoking resistance.
<p>Analyses are described in full in the methods. MAF: minor allele frequency.</p
SKAT and AMELIA analysis results using primary controls, ranked by SKAT P value.
#<p>Only genes with >4 SNPs with MAF<5% were tested by AMELIA.</p
Single variant association results for 20 top exonic SNPs.

Immunohistochemistry staining for Coiled-Coil Domain-Containing Protein 38 (CCDC38) in a normal human bronchial epithelium at Ă—40 magnification.
<p>When compared to the unstained isotype control (Rabbit IgG) (A), staining identifies moderate cytoplasmic expression of CCDC38 particularly in the columnar epithelial cells and the bronchial smooth muscle layer (B). Image representative of three independent staining procedures.</p
